Hillary Clinton is surging in one of the most reliably red states

As a flood of positive polling news continues to roll in for Hillary Clinton, her standing in one reliably red state is raising some eyebrows.

A poll for the second time in the past few days has shown Clinton with a strong lead in Georgia, a state that has voted for the Democratic presidential nominee just once since 1984.

The poll, released Monday by JMC analytics and polling, showed Clinton with a 44%-to-37% edge over Republican nominee Donald Trump, with a margin of error of 4 points. That poll comes on the heels of an Atlanta Journal-Constitution poll from the Peach State that showed Clinton leading Trump 44% to 40%, also with a margin of error of 4 points.

President Barack Obama lost Georgia by roughly 8 points to his Republican challenger Mitt Romney in 2012.

The polls came on the heels of a week's worth of nonstop controversy surrounding Trump that prefaced a plummet by him in numerous polls.

His numbers took a beating amid a feud with a military family that was critical of him at the Democratic National Convention. He has also claimed recently that the fall election will be "rigged" against him, expressed more positive feelings toward Russia, and said he is not ready to endorse House Speaker Paul Ryan or Sen. John McCain of Arizona — two of the most prominent Republicans in Washington — in their primary races later this month, though he reversed his position on those endorsements late last week.
